What Hunts Inside the Shadows (Of Flesh & Bone, #2)

by Harper L. Woods

“Oh, Little One, what I feel when I’m inside of you isn’t about anything as mundane as sex. Our bodies moving in tandem, our souls melded as closely as they can be? It isn’t about fucking you, but about being inside you in every way. The moments when you orgasm are the only ones when you open yourself to me, when you share your feelings so that I may feel them too,”

I felt you fall in love all over again, but with me this time. I see in your eyes that you wish you could take it back more than anything, but you can’t. Because you and I both know what you felt; we both know you loved me with everything you were. More than you ever loved your husbands in all your past lives. You still do, and you can’t wish that away, because you were born to love me, whether I deserve it or not.”

“It is time for the stars in the sky to rest for the day, Little One, and that means the star I hold in my arms must rise,” Caelum murmured, his voice resonating in the depths of my soul.

“You, Estrella. It was complicated because I couldn’t reach you, but I spent every day missing you, anyway. Waiting for the day when I would get to know you,”

“Never pretend to be something you’re not. Never dull how bright you burn so that others may feel comfortable in your presence.”
